4 Methods for Driving Linear Motion

February 17, 2017

This past year we've released a number of linear motion components helpful in designing your projects. We've also received lots of questions, so we decided to do a two part series on it. So, sit back, relax, grab a bag of popcorn because Kyle and Jason break down some common methods for driving linear motion.

From lead screws, to actuators, to gear racks and more, Kyle and Jason help explain various methods for driving linear motion and when and why each one would be ideal for your build. Below are some additional helpful videos we've released related to linear motion. Stay tuned for Part 2....

In the Tech Tip video above, Kyle and Jason mention three other videos you might find helpful when working on your builds.
